The main purpose of this study is to delimit the boundary of central business district and to describe the internal structure of CBD in Seoul. To delimit the CBD boundary, we used the locational matrices of main CBD functions, which were ofganized through fieldworks. CBD functions are classified into 20 categories. They are retail sales, corporation managements, administration managements, business, and unclassified services, customer(personal)services, and manufacturings. The core area of CBD in Seoul is at Chongro and Chung Gu area that shows the locational consistency comparing to 1970s. Although the boundary is slightly expanded into west, south and east, the extent of horizontal expansion in CBD can be negligible comparing to the remarkable growth of Korean economy after 1970s. The reasons why CBD showed little expansion can be found out from the process of restructuring in Seoul metropolitan area, such as the growth of subcenters, decentralization of central functions, construction of highrise buildings, redevelopment in central area and so on. Internal structure of Seoul's CBD shows 5 specialized functional subdistricts. They are CBD core area, subdistrict of department and office functions, retail sales, customer services and light manufacturings.

This paper aims to delineate Central Business District(CBD) and subcentres of Seoul and compare the functional differences of them by spatial scan statistics. Most existing studies to delimit Seoul CBD have two limits in the methods to make boundaries. First, most Seoul CBD-defining studies presuppose some central area contains CBD and look into just that area in a concentrating manner because it is too difficult to collect the data in a whole city boundary. Therefore the CBD areas have been localized in that study areas. But I analysed the data of the whole area of Seoul and was able to define the CBD and subcentres of Seoul. Second, I analysed the data by a spatial scan statistics technique and was able to minimize the number of subjective items in constructing some conditions for CBD. The CBD area in this study is enlarged eastward over East Gate, a national treasure in Seoul, than the areas in existing studies. In the contrary, westwardly, our CBD is set back a little. The two competing central places in Seoul, CBD and Gangnam have some different specialized subareas. CBD has more governing authorities and wholesale stores and Gangnam has many conglomerates HQs, Offices and cosmetic clinics.

There are 82 volcanoes active during the 48 weeks of 2019 (January 30 to December 31, 2019; USGS data) Approximately 80~90 volcanoes are active on the Earth for a year. More than 91% of these volcanoes are took place in the circum-Pacific volcanic belt, which is commonly called 'Ring of Fire'. This status coincides with the distribution maps of active volcanoes on the earth: about 80 percent on subduction zone of the convergent plate boundaries; 15 percent on divergent plate boundaries; 5 percent on intra-plate zone. Typically five volcanoes are most active during the survey period (48 weeks); Dukono (Halmahera, Indonesia) 48 times, Aira (Kyushu, Japan) 47 times, Ebeko (Paramushir Island, Russsia) 46 times, Merapi (Central Java, Indonesia) 37 times, Krakatau (Indonesia) 33 times. The comparison of volcanic activity between 2018 and 2019 showed no significant difference. It is assumed that volcanic activity remains stable.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of specialized thematic science club activities on the students' scientific attitudes. The subjects of this study were ninety students from two high schools in Korea. The study group consisted of forty experimental groups and forty six science clubs with no special topics. The mean, standard deviation, t-value, and significance were compared with the corresponding sample t-test. First, specialized thematic science club activities showed positive effects on students' scientific attitude. Although the average scores of the scientific attitudes of the experiment group and the control group were improved before the operation of the club, the increase of the experimental group which operated the specialized topic was larger than that of the control group and there was a statistically significant difference. In the analysis of sub-elements of scientific attitude, the increase of the experimental group was larger than that of the control group. There were no statistically significant results in the control group, but the experimental group showed significant differences in openness, creativity, and cooperativeness among the subordinate factors of scientific attitude. Second, to investigate the effects of the specialized thematic science club activities on the scientific attitude in school, family, and social situations solving the problems of daily life as well as solving the science problems, there was no significant difference within the group, but there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental group with the specialized topic and the home and school situation. This result indicated that the scientific attitudes required to solve problems in the home and school have improved positively.

The capitalist economic process of glocalization and development of transportation and communication technology have led us to the significance of network city as well as concepts of global city, megacity region, etc. Network city theory pursues development of both individual cities and of the region of those cities through strengthening of mutual connectivity among them with specialized industries. On the basis of network city theory, this paper is to analyze specialized industries of cities and connectivity among them in the Youngnam region in S. Korea. It uses the methods of locational quotient, locational Gini coefficient, and shift-share method to analyze specialized industries of cities, and correspondence analysis, global and local Moran's I to examine connectivity among cities. As results, it can be identified that each city in the Youngnam region has its own specialized industries different from each others, but it seems not easy to grasp the overall extent of connectivity among them, partly because of the limitations of applied analysis methods and partly because of a lack of connectivity among cities themselves.

Today, the name of Changjiang (Yangtze) Delta Region is used to designate an economic region which consists of sixteen cities including Shanghai City. The region has achieved the highest rate of economic growth in the world as well as in China since China its opened its toward the world market. The aim of this study is to examine the modern transition of spatial structure in the region after the opening (1978) and the membership of WTO (2000). In the examination, the study divides the spatial structure into three aspects: industrialization, urbanization and economic integration. The outcome of examination suggests that spatial division of industry, horizontally and vertically, has not reached a satisfactory level even if it is still in progress. The study proposes that the intervention of government in the market and company activity has hindered the spatial division of industry including service sector between the cities, and thus the economic integration. It further suggests that the specialization of urban function has not entered into the maturing stage, with the shortage of mid-size cities that would mediate spatial-economically between the large-size cities and the small-size cities in the urban hierarchy.

Volcanic activity, which can read to various danger and hazards to human life, has been part of the Earth's history for a long time. There are approximately 1,520 volcanoes during the Holocene period (about 10,000 years ago) that have been active on Earth. Recently, there are about 210 volcanoes have been recorded since 2010. Meanwhile, there are 83 known active volcanoes in 2018 based on the USGS data. Approximately 80-90 volcanoes are active on Earth for over a year. More than 90% of these volcanoes are located on the circum-Pacific volcanic belt, commonly known as 'Ring of Fire'. This high number of active volcanoes within this area coincides with the distribution maps of active volcanoes on the earth: about 80% on subduction zone of the convergent plate boundaries; 15% on divergent plate boundaries and 5% on intra-plate zone. Five volcanoes are most active during the survey period of 51 weeks: 50 times in Aira (Japan), 49 times in Sabankaya (Peru), 49 times in Sheveluch (Russia), 44 times in Ebeko (Russia) and 40 times in Kirishimayama (Japan). Based on the available data about volcanic activity, there is no significant change in volcanic activity and similar levels of volcanic activity is observed every year.

본 논문은 지구의 지속적인 발전을 위해서 지구환경문제인 지구온난화 방지에 대한 방법으로 이산화탄소 저감을 위한 방안에 관해서 검토하였다. 지속가능성을 위협하고 있는 빈부의 격차를 축소하고 동시에 지구온난화에 대한 환경개선을 국제적인 틀 안에서 환경비교우위에 기초한 산업구조의 조정과 공동이행활동이라고 하는 방안을 제안하고, 이러한 방안에 관해서 분석평가하고 비교한 것이다. 구체적으로는 이산화탄소 문제를 지구 전체 문제라고 가정하고 방안을 강구하였다. 국가간의 GNP와 고용에 미치는 영향은 최소한으로 하면서 이산화탄소 배출량을 줄이는 양국의 산업구조를 명확하게 한 것이다. 더욱이 남북문제도 동시에 해결한다는 것에 착안해서 이론전개를 하고 있다. 따라서, 여기서는 환경비교우위의 개념을 응용해서 부가가치단위당 이산화탄소 배출이 상대적으로 적은 부문(환경적 우위 부문)에 생산을 특화하고 이것과 반대의 환경적 열위부문에 대해서는 상대국으로부터 수입에 의존하는 것에서 국제적으로 이산화탄소 배출이 적은 산업의 재배치를 실현하는 것이 가능하다라고 하는 논리전개로부터 그 결과를 명확하게 하였다. 또한, 지구환경개선을 목표로 하는 또 하나의 전략인 공동이행활동에 관해서 분석하였다. 이것에 관해서는 경제적으로 온실효과가스를 줄인다는 것뿐만 아니라 선진국에서 개발도상국으로의 기술이전을 촉진하고 남북격차를 시정한다는 점에서 기대가 크다는 것에 착안하고 게임이론을 통해 일본과 중국의 실제 데이터를 사용하여 공동이행활동의 가능성을 평가하였다. 이러한 두 가지 방책의 특징을 검토하여 효율적인 방안을 제시하고 그 방안에 대하여 고안하고 시뮬레이션 분석을 하였다. 그 결과 융합방안에서는 상술한 환경비교우위의 정학적 분석결과와 공동이행의 게임분석결과를 고려하고 확장된 공동이행 게임의 균형점까지 자원의 원조를 한다는 전제조건하에서 2010년까지 이산화탄소 배출량 추이를 산정한 결과 융합방안이 보다 효율적이라는 것이 판명되었다. 이러한 내용을 바탕으로 본 논문에서는 현재 지구 온난화 문제의 해결에 있어서 걸림돌이 되고 있는 남북문제의 격차와 협력에 관한 곤란한 문제에 착안해서 환경적 우위와 융합방안이라고 하는 새로운 방안을 제안하였다. 그리고 각각의 방안에 대해서 상세히 분석하고 일본과 중국을 모델로 실제 정책으로의 실현가능성을 분석하였다.
